There was some demand for all classes of
wheat. but buyers objected to paying the half
cent advance asked for samples Low grades
have been in demand of late for mixing pur-
poses, but it is claimed that prices have been
put up by the inquiry that has developed
that there is no more profit in it. Receipts
amounted to 421 cars, and shipments 157.
Duluth received 1S9.

Flour-The Market Record says: The firm
ness in the last few days in the general wheat
markets has led local millers up to the point
of quoting 5@110c higher for their -four The
demand from domestic markets has been .ex-
ceediDgly good for prompt delivery, and most
of the mills have so many such orders ac-
cepted and booked hat,without really mean
ing to make forward sales for more than a
few days, are really so for at least two or
three weeks. If the wheat market. now firm
ing, should advance much the millers would
not care to burden themselves with
additional future sales at the old figures.

Corn-The few lots offering go out at 500
3S42c by sample car lots on track.
Oats-The arrivals are worked off slowly
and at the cost of some effort to get satisfac
tory figures. There are some damaged lots
making their appearance; some muSty, more
dirty, with the bulk of them somewhat
weather stained. They are selling at 24@29c
for fairly good SAMPLES of mixed and white
Barley-This market is wholly a sample
market, with which the grade fixed by local
inspection has little to do in fixing the price
it will bring. Fairly bright, sound and
plump barley brings 5o@55c.
FlaXseed-Sold at about S1.O2
Feed-Mixed of good quality brought
SD .eS@15 on track, S15.25@15.5O f. o. b.

Hay-Receipts hold out pretty well. but
choice lots are doing fairly. A few choice
cars reach $40, hut they have to be nice.
Several good cars sold al $9@9.50.
